Ethernet Switch

[minnowhooker]

Im installing humminbird ethernet switch. Does it need an on off switch. I already have separate on off switch's wired into hot side of each graph.

i used one. there are occasions i wouldnt want it on. such as updating multiple units. even just the constant drain on the battery in storage is a reason to have a switch on it.

I did not think about updates

Also, it's helpful to be able to power off the switch when making network connection changes to reset everything. If it would be cut off by a whole boat switch, that would work as well.

Thanks you for the stuff I didn't think of Ill wire in the switch
